Two Castle Rock, Colorado High School students, Sally and Madelyn, made a short film about scientology. They entered it in a local competition and won first place in their category! They were required to submit a paper, describing their planned film and why it addressed a worthy topic before they began. You can read their submission here: Context Essay This is their description of their documentary: "Our submission was for the 2022 National History day senior division documentary category! The theme this year is debate and diplomacy, we chose to represent this with the conflict seen … [Read more...]
Happy New Year
Enjoying a wonderful New Year with friends... I hope you are too. I believe 2022 is going to be a watershed year in the world of scientology for two main reasons. The pandemic has taken its toll on an organization that relies on keeping people inside an information bubble that needs personal contact and briefings. Emerging from the pandemic, assuming this happens in 2022, when so many have been distanced from the controlling influences of the organization is going to be revelatory. It will expose the truth about the real state of scientology — which is a shell of its former s … [Read more...]
Episode 70: Claire Headley Knowledge Reports
We continue our discussion from last week about Committees of Evidence with Claire Headley, now covering the snitch culture of scientology and the subject of Knowledge Reports. It is one of the most important control mechanisms within the scientology world. As we normally do, I have included documents that give the whole story of things we mention. Scientology Org Board outline, the full "7 Division Org Board": The "Hubbard Communications Office" Div 1 org board. Department 3 "Inspection and Reports" is where the Ethics Officer is located The Anderson … [Read more...]
Episode 69: Claire Headley on Committees of Evidence
We talk to our old friend and Aftermath OG Claire Headley again this week, this time to discuss Committees of Evidence. What are they exactly, our personal experiences convening, participating and being victims of them, and how they differ from arbitration. We have quite a lot of documents to go along with this episode -- a great repository of information for future reference. The Headley Aftermath episode Season 1 Ep 5 (if you haven't seen this one. we have some fun with the PI's who followed us to Denver): Marc's wonderfully entertaining … [Read more...]

Cult City Tour and The Aftermath Foundation
Thank you to everyone who joined us for the tour of Downtown Clearwater yesterday to benefit The Aftermath Foundation. And also to those who listened in remotely. We had a fun time and it was wonderful to see such a strong show of support from so many smiling faces. Our enormous appreciation to everyone for supporting the Aftermath Foundation. The Foundation's meaningful work continues, mostly unseen and not often talked about for the protection and peace of mind of those who are helped. It's the opposite of a scientology "humanitarian programs" where they don't do anything unless the … [Read more...]
Episode 30: Marc Headley Blown For Good
This week, Leah and I had a wonderful time talking with my old and very dear friend Marc Headley —The BFG — on our Fair Game Podcast. Marc not only has a phenomenal memory, he possesses a great sense of humor. Anyone who has read his book knows both of these things to be true. We covered plenty of ground -- talking about the Int base and David Miscavige, the infamous musical chairs incident depicted in Going Clear and even how the Rinder bobblehead came to be. Throughout I mentioned including links, you will find them below. This is definitely an episode you don't want to mis … [Read more...]
Episode 17: Former Sea Org Executive Claire Headley
Leah and I were extremely happy to welcome our old friend Claire Headley to the Fair Game podcast. Claire of course appeared in 2 episodes of The Aftermath -- and she was recently featured on the Netflix home page: I have known Claire and her husband Marc since I first went to the Gold Base -- way back in the 80's. Claire worked closely with Miscavige as an executive in Religious Technology Center. She was the Deputy Inspector General Internal. Claire helped me many times, she is one of the few people I know -- especially at the international level, and even more specifically in … [Read more...]
Scientology Smears Ramina – Yawn
True to form, scientology had their brilliant "response" to tonight's episode up before it aired. Snatching the "high ground" their big takedown of Ramina is "we threw her out in 2016" and she is a "Total Fraud" because she "manufactured an exit from the Church." Hahaha It is almost doing Ramina a disservice to even pretend she needs a defense -- it's as if I might be giving some credence to scientology's insane "response". Once again, clearly they had not watched the show, so they prove to the world they truly are intelligence challenged robots. There is not a single person anywhere … [Read more...]
Scientology Disconnection
I originally posted this on my blog in 2013. I feel it is worth reiterating. I have updated it a bit. While Scientology spokespeople have routinely denied that “enforced disconnection exists”, anyone who is familiar with the church of scientology knows only too well about disconnection. Like so much else in the scientology empire, its an ugly truth to be hidden from the “wog” world through a game of carefully worded deception of the same order as Bill Clinton’s infamous “I did not have sexual relations with that woman.” When you see a church spokespeople emphatically state “there is no po … [Read more...]
